March 18, 20241 yr Author I’d hate Fern to win, she gives me extremely bad vibes. She’s very fake and jealous of younger attractive women. She has been a crap housemate.
March 18, 20241 yr I've lost interest in this seies. Housemates are really vanilla, and too conscious of coming across well. Louis does make me laugh though, he's got no filter
March 18, 20241 yr I’d hate Fern to win, she gives me extremely bad vibes. She’s very fake and jealous of younger attractive women. She has been a crap housemate. As opposed to Louis who you love who has racist undertones and bitter about nearly everyone :lol: ok.
March 18, 20241 yr This “Fern is jealous of attractive younger women” stance seems like an almighty leap to be making… just because she didn’t happen to warm to Ekin-Su? Fern has had no apparent problems with Marisha and Zeze? So what exactly is fake about Fern? I think that’s a very off base word to use to describe her. :unsure:

I think that’s a very off base word to use to describe her. :unsure: Going by the preview of tonight's ep she noms either Marisha or ZeZe. Saying that I don't think she has been jealous of any of the younger women. Ekin-Su and Fern clearly had an issue with each other rather than Fern going round being horrible to the women. She was also spot on in all of her observations of Ekin-Su and how she has acted in the house. Personally I'd say that Fern is measured in what she says, or doesn't say - which isn't a bad thing as you need to have a filter and be wary of your surroundings. I'd say though she has contributed more than a number of other HMs this series.

She uplifted Marisha when she was going through it with Ekin-Su, has been nothing but lovely to Zeze. Its not like she's bitched about either of them either. She also had issues with Louis but i would hardly say she's bitter and jealous of him.
March 18, 20241 yr I’d hate Fern to win, she gives me extremely bad vibes. She’s very fake and jealous of younger attractive women. She has been a crap housemate. We seem to be the only ones actually watching the same show here! If anyone else had made the Meghan comments Fern had they’ve had a right old roasting. I think Fern is loved just because she hates Schofield she’s been abysmal in the house. Ekins looks are playing a huge part in the sudden surge in people not being a fan of her and I don’t think I’m reaching saying this :lol:

I'd say though she has contributed more than a number of other HMs this series. Fern does seem calculated to me. She plays up to the cameras, the facial expressions, crying in the diary room and making out if this is the best experience she's had in her life :lol: She was fake to Ekin-Su since day 1 and went too far with her reasons during the face-to-face nominations.
March 18, 20241 yr For the record, Ekin’s looks have zero to do with my distaste for her - that’s just utterly superficial. However, the personality traits has everything to do with it… I’m not saying she’s a terrible person, far from it. This is completely within the parameters of reality TV and entertainment viewing, having an opinion on how she came across. Based on that, I just don’t get the love and adoration… or the defence squad. If her fans would hold their hands up and admit that she didn’t come across all that well, and she’s not going to be everyone’s cup of tea but that’s fine… then, I’d understand! But it feels like her fanbase is really doubling down on pointing the blame finger at literally anybody else, housemates and viewers - but not at Ekin-Su herself. Bizarre to me, but I suppose it is what it is…!

Fern has had no apparent problems with Marisha and Zeze? So what exactly is fake about Fern? I think that’s a very off base word to use to describe her. :unsure: Literally this. The ‘jealous of attractive younger women’ argument… like, surely y'all are just trolling now? How dare someone see through poor little innocent Ekin-Su’s primary school acting and just generally not warm to her as a person. It seems any objective awareness and rational thinking whatsoever has been lost on people hell bent on defending Ekin-Su. Fern, Zeze, AJ, Will, Layton… they can’t all be wrong when there’s one common denominator. :lol:
March 18, 20241 yr Ekin didn't come across well on the show but she never did anything that bad to receive this amount of hate and nastiness (even in this thread). The media smear campaign last week leading up to her eviction, every Z lister crawling out the woodwork for some tabloid coverage, AJ and Will bashing her all week on Late and Live. It was A LOT. And I really worry for her mental health cause she was not in a good place coming into this.
March 18, 20241 yr Author I don't recall ever saying Ekin came across well on CBB :lol: I don't think anyone here that likes Ekin has said she was doing great on the show or was being delusional about proclaiming she came across great. I'm agreeing with everything JLJ and Kath are saying. The Meghan comments really rubbed me up the wrong way and her bonding with Gary about tories. As a POC you pick up on undertones and it made me very uncomfortable. I also found her attitude towards Ekin vile and how after being nominated the first time Fern started acting up for the cameras putting that blanket over her head and doing that weird song/dance. I just find her dis-genuine, but some may feel the same about Ekin and that is fine. I also just don't buy this 'i'm so sweet' act. I just personally do not think she brings anything to the show but good for other people finding her remotely interesting. People are doing the absolute most with Ekin, acting as if she's anything like the racist Jade Goody, Helen Wood or the vile Roxanne Pallet (i'm not directing this at anyone in this thread but on Twitter). I think we'll all have to agree to disagree on the Fern/Ekin thing. Edited March 18, 20241 yr by Slayer

Very telling that you bring up the ‘Meghan comments’ to further your argument against Fern, when in actual fact it was Louis that instigated that conversation and asked the others’ opinions on her, yet you think Louis is the pinnacle of entertainment (and happened to be fond of Ekin-Su too). So are you really invested in disliking those who give personal commentary on that topic that you disagree with, or is it just convenient ammo to use against somebody that’s aired grievances with Ekin-Su? :kink:

I don't think i've ever said he is a good person either, i've only said he is good for entertainment purposes. But yeah go ahead and tell me, a POC how I should feel about Meghan comments because to you it clearly doesn't matter how it made me feel, an actual POC feel. I also called out the undertones when Gary and co were saying it too, so please do not try that BS with me. I've repeatedly said it is fine if people do not like Ekin-Su and i've now repeatedly said she did not come across well. I actually find it very telling you want to tell a POC how they should feel about Meghan comments. If you need me to be even more specific, all those partaking in that conversation made me uncomfortable. If you would like to continue this feel free to DM me, i'd rather not derail the thread.

March 18, 20241 yr For what it’s worth, I get bad vibes from Fern too. I get them from you B-) lol,I like Fern I think she is measured but also not afraid to say her piece in a calm and astute way. I didn’t like Ekin-Su at all and it had nothing to do with her looks so I don’t understand why people are suggesting Fern would have that issue when she doesn’t with the other young female housemates. I do however think she went a bit far with the “it disturbs me” when nominating in the booth, the rest I thought was fine and astute but that bit was a bit unnecessary. David to win anyway!! 🙌
